3. Some Background Climate change is upon us. We need to limit it to 2 degrees. – (4 degrees is unthinkable) To do this we need to cut emissions by 80%. – of 1990 levels, …by 2050 It is very hard to do enough. We each need to do all that is in our control. Waiting only makes it harder.

4. 40-60% of emissions are by 1-5% of global population Only a small % of global population need to do radical mitigation. We do! UK and other tier 1 countries need to reduce emissions by 70% in next decade (latest estimate) To do this we need BOTH – renewable energy as fast as possible AND – substantial reductions in energy consumption Key messages to hit 2 degrees

5. “Our World, Our Share” New WinACC initiative We should replicate the National Targets in our own district Two targets: energy reduction and renewable generation Elements of our work: >>> Feasibility assessment >>> Practical plan demonstrating that it can be achieved and how >>> Technical backup We want to know how you can help us in this Year2013 (current) 2020 target 2025 target 2030 target 2050 target % energy from Renewables (non-transport) 1.8%15%25%30% CO2 emission reduction on 199030% (2015 target) 40%80% (national target)

6. CO2 emissions reductions Winchester District target reduction of 40% by 2020 (Ref 2004) Aligned with aim of 80% (ref 1990) by 2050. Equates to 3.8% reduction per year from now. Incremental savings of 26,000 tonnes each year

7. Where can 26,000 tonnes p.a. be saved? Total emissions WD = 1,107kt CO2e pa Industrial /Commercial share: ~40% or 400kt extra per year Where the further savings each year can come from:

8. 1) Why are businesses important in this? Emissions reductions: – Industry creates 40% of local emissions. – Your share! Renewables: – Assets you control could support renewables (e.g. Roofs for PV, biomass boilers, River Cottage) It makes commercial sense! – NHS example

10. Your share of savings: Businesses

11. 2) Renewable Energy Where are the opportunities for your organisation?

16. 3) It makes commercial sense… AEA: Assessment of possibilities for emissions savings in NHS institutions Aim to show which measures most effective against investment cost

17. Marginal Abatement Cost analysis

18. Report highlights energy savings in the NHS of almost 1m tonnes CO2 per year, whilst also providing cash savings of £100m – £200m per year What would it look like in your business?

19. Marginal Abatement Curve: Ambulance Trust (IT)

20. Marginal Abatement Curve: Large Acute NHS Trust

22. Summary We all need to do our share. It is our world. There are many opportunities to generate or save. It often makes business sense. Questions: – How will you achieve your share? – What are the barriers? Can we help? – What potential renewable energy assets are you sitting on? How could the capability be unlocked? Can we help? – What savings initiatives are you missing? What prevents you from acting? What is your investment time horizon?

23. Partnerships and funding If it is not priority for your own capital, might it be worth partnering with another? – Community Energy Groups for funding – Hampshire Community Bank – Neighbouring businesses – Your pension funds? Grants can help the business case: FIT, CfD, RHI, etc
